Hey so I'm cross-posting to 🔵⛅️ @ https://t.co/dlJqVMKcWY

Mostly cross-posted stuff, but maybe some other stuff that you can only see there?

No dissent read from the bench. Insane. Last case of the term and the three that dissented, even Thomas, don't want to read from it.

Cowards.

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

6-3, pretty much. Kavanaugh got super technical and said the EO does not violate the 14th, but does violate the federal statute that codified it.

Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissented.

Thank God. Normalcy. Win for immigrants! 😁

I'm scared.

[Sylvain 🧡❤️‍🔥 @SylvainTrinel]

Brace yourselves Xbox fans, you are going to go through hell in the coming weeks. The signals I'm getting are very bad, and internally, morale is at an all-time low.

I didn't think it would go this far when I started writing about this topic a few weeks ago. I’m so sorry.

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

There are future cases. This case was about whether States MAY ban trans athletes under the 14th. Next case will be if they MUST under Title IX.

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

A lot of nuance to the decisions in this case. Leaves a lot of room open for future cases based on approach to challenges. Essentially 9-0 for the Title IX and 6-3 for equal protection clause.

That being said, not great for trans rights 😭. Keep fighting!

I enjoyed Jackass Best & Last. Laughed a lot, got a wee bit emotional. However, to really enjoy it, you have to have the context of the JCU.. the Jackass Cinematic Universe.

See it with as many people as you can. :)

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

Had every intention to play, ya know, a game during these past couple weeks. Nah. Not feeling it. Soaking in the #FIFAWorldCup and settling into a post-small vacation work/life balance routine before the July 4th holiday. Might hold until AC: Black Flag Resynced on the 9th.🤷‍♂️

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

I've been a fan of Muse since I was a kid in the early 2000s, and The Wow! Signal is their best in a long, long time. Must listen for alt rock fans and a welcome return to form for Muse fans.

Favorite tracks: The Dark Forest, Cryogen, Hexagons, Hush (ft. Ellie Goulding)

Sneaky upset possible. Don't count out Bosnia. Plenty of heart and passion.

[ESPN @espn]

The USMNT will play Bosnia-Herzegovina in the Round of 32 next Wednesday in Santa Clara 👀

I'm still watching too much of the #FIFAWorldCup.

Someone still help me.

I've been waiting for the dust to settle a little bit on the Xbox reporting from the last week or so before I fully share my thoughts on the matter. I don't think a thread of tweets will be able to explain it. I may have to break out the notes app. ☹️

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

I really enjoyed the mop-up. Highly recommended.

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight was my first LEGO game in 12 years. I rolled credits on the story (but have plenty of side stuff to mop up), and I had a great time with it! Just plain fun as heck. References, winks, and jokes galore. 😆

#FIFAWorldCup

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

Early #FIFAWorldCup broadcast notes:

1) Hydration breaks should *not* be ad breaks, @FOXSports
2) Alexi Lalas continues to be unserious, and is a bad mark on FOX's coverage as long as they use him
3) Comm teams are fine, rest of studio pundits are great

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

#FIFAWorldCup vibe check from a 30-something year old American fan: (without much thought)

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

With gaming showcase season winding down (👀 Nintendo), I can shift my focus back to a normal pattern of gaming, life, and work. Hoping to start playing again soon.

Plus... the #FIFAWorldCup! My plan for that? Watch every match, within reason (and around my work schedule).

[Brandon K(ftw) @BrandonKFTW]

🧑‍🍳with 🔥. Excited for most of the games shown.
